“BEAUTY I’VE SEEN” by Bill Charles ~~~~ I’ve seen a cloud in the summer daylight, a moonbeam falling, on a starry night, the lake peaceful and serene, resting there, ocean waters, as they touch everywhere… I’ve seen mountains, reaching to the sky, the forests, reaching out to beautify, constellations shining in the darkness, the Milky Way and all it’s mightiness… Then I see you, but I don’t compare, it’s because of you, of them I’m aware, you have guided me through, to harmonize, with all this beauty, I’ve seen with my eyes… ~~~~ |

Bill~ Some people can live their lives and never see this....and there is so much beauty out there....this takes my breath away.... Lauren~ Tomorrow's another day and I'm thirsty any way so bring on the rain [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (01-14-2002 11:28 PM).] |

Bill darling boy this is fabulous writing, you never cease to stun and amaze me. Not because I don’t expect your writing to be beautiful I know it is. But I never expect it to continue to get better and more descriptive than ever. You know that this is utterly wonderful don’t you, the flow and the metre are just perfect Truly sensational writing, beauty is always welcome darling man and YOU bring so much of it Thank you for this wonderful poem it’s magic As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

*sigh* your writing shows perfectly all the beauty you have seen and when seen anew through love's eyes it is even more stunning then before. Wonderful writing...I love the whole feel of this poem. Romance is an incredibly big part of your writing and you do it so very well. **big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
